The above example takes place in a Controller Action, where a Panel performs 'activate'. As you can see from the above, I'm acquiring the label element by querying the container.down - again, I wonder if this is an efficient means of both querying, and updating the value of an Element. I know there are many other ways to get a component, and other times during the lifecycle of the software to actually update the value of the component. In this case, I would be setting the value of the labels each time the component is activated - is that going to lead to more executions than necessary? I would like to establish the least-taxing method to make the app as responsive as possible.
